For those who have not received their copy, I apologize. The magazine is mailed out of the midwest but there doesn't seem to be pattern. Some on the West Coast have received their first class mailings while some on the East Coast have not. However, I don't believe any 3rd class have received theirs either.

They were mailed out a week ago today. Interesting that Belgium, Bob received his copy before many first class mailings here in the U.S. I believe if you are a contributor to the magazine, you get your copies FIRST. Is that incentive enough to start writing...

Any thoughts on making all the magazines first class? I believe only 20-30% are first class. Oh, I must also apologize to Jim Munding who had a show last Saturday. As an advertiser, the majority of the readers will miss his timely ad highlighting the chip show in Arcadia. Sorry Jim. Another MAJOR mistake was the exclusion of Jim Steffner's ad announcing his running for President. I really screwed that up and I am terribly sorry for that.

Thanks for the kind words from those who have received their copy. We vow to continue the high quality that this hobby deserves.
